Ainos colours today are based on a little lily called söring time in Finnish. I couldn’t find an English common name for gagea minima but the German common name literally translates as little yellow star.

I Think the Little Cloud Is Lost
Less sky, more green. But the sky itself would have been undefinably whitish grey. I took this photo on the banks of the river Neckar. A couple of kilometres up the river there would have been the Heidelberg castle on the slopes.
It looked quite atmospheric and not at all like spring. But that’s what you get in April. April is a mixed bag.

Three candles in a chestnut tree.
Three beetles on a dandelion.
Daisy and blue flax.

A Commanding View
The tower on the Odenwald hill called Tromm jutts out an usual angle. It’s a prominent view from many directions.
And it offers prominent views to all the surrounds, 360° of it.

Purple Tears
I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don’t notice it.
Alice Walker, The Colour Purple
Adults should not weep, I knew. They did not have mothers who would comfort them.
Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Line
